Sometimes it is good to get out of the office and go visit with you, our customers. After all, our main purpose for being is to service the public! Outreach is a very important part of what we do at the National Weather Service in Jackson. The Warning Coordination Meteorologist (WCM) Tony Edwards works closely with the public, media and emergency management officials in an effort to make sure that National Weather Service products and information are understood and acted on properly. Our outreach team speaks to hundreds of children and adults across eastern Kentucky each year about weather and weather safety. If you are interested in having the NWS speak at your event, of if you would like to schedule a tour of our facilities, please contact our office, or use the Outreach Request Form found here or contact our Warning Coordination Meteorologist at 606-666-2560 ex. 726.
